This July, Uranus, Pluto, Neptune and Jupiter will form a perfect pattern shaped like a brazier, chalice or grail that spreads across the signs between Aquarius and Leo via Aries and Gemini. This perfects around 18 July depending on where you are in the world, but it is already active now. All [...]

At this month’s Salon we discussed the future, using the Pope’s encyclical Magnifica Humanitas as a way in to thinking about how to approach the incredible pattern of planets this summer. This led to discussion of inequality, the effects of the 2008 banking crisis and much more. To [...]

Click the image to go to the YouTube video. At this month’s Salon we focused on Uranus in Gemini, and what it’s been feeling like over the last couple of weeks since the planet of electricity shimmied into the first air sign. I told some stories to members of the Salon, and they [...]

The hedgerows are slathered with blossoms as thick as Cornish cream. If you took a bite you’d end up with a petaled moustache and maybe have to wipe it away with a handkerchief of Queen’s Anne’s Lace.  I am wishing you a very delicious May Day wherever you are.  This one is exceptional, of [...]

This is the first 20 minutes of the member’s salon in which I discuss the chart of Pope Leo, water wars and space — some of the themes of current astrology. During the Salon, we go the news that Orban lost — which was great! The Salon is actually about an hour and a half, [...]

This week I went on Yasmin Boland’s Mainly Moonology podcast to promote Lilith. But first she asked me what I thought about this week in astrology, which led us down some interesting by ways. You can listen to the whole conversation here, which is also an overview of the week in astrology. [...]

Jeffrey Epstein raped, tortured and likely murdered women and children. I’ll just reiterate that. “Financier” Jeffrey Epstein raped, tortured and likely murdered women and children. If you were a “friend” — and he seemed to have an awful lot of those [...]

Anyone could see she was a queen. That’s why they wanted to hurt her. She was born with the Sun and Moon in the royal sign, Leo, and Leo Rising. She emanated light. That’s why they wanted to snuff her out. Several Leo women I’ve met were abused as children. I have wondered if [...]

The Chinese Year of the Fire Horse officially began at the New Moon on 17 February, which also happened to be a solar eclipse. At the same time, the god of horses, Neptune, rears and strikes sparks at the very start of the Western zodiac — 0° Aries, ready to gallop into the future. On […]

I was so pleased when astrologer Anne Whitaker agreed to chat with me about the massive cosmic shifts that we are experiencing. She joined me in the Salon and this video is of the first hour of our conversation. After I stopped the recording, for privacy reasons, we went on to expand further [...]

—————————— From East Wing Magazine “If the West Wing is the mind of the nation, then the East Wing is the heart.” — Betty Ford —————————— It was bad enough when they paved over the Rose Garden, but the destruction of the East Wing of the White House by a wrecking crew is just [...]

I spoke with author, teacher and astrologer Alex Trenoweth at the October Salon about her new book Zeus on the Loose. Here’s the publisher’s blurb: “Every parent wants the best for their child – and that starts with understanding how they learn. In astrology, Jupiter is [...]

No child should be part of any conflict — ever. So far, at least 20,000 Ukrainian children have been abducted and taken for “re-education” into the heart of Russia. Meanwhile, at least 17,000 Palestinian children have been killed outright by the Israeli military in the last 18 [...]

Today Venus and Uranus meet — which they do every year, of course  — but this time it’s a super-potent rendezvous. They are meeting at the very end of Taurus — 29° — and the following day Venus will skip into Gemini, and on 7 July, Uranus will follow her. He has [...]

Brian Wilson captured bliss — the first days of falling in love, the joy of driving, summer,  the beach — and crafted them into songs so densely filled with honied light that they will surely still be played hundreds of years from now. A twist of melancholy — we know those [...]

The story of  death and resurrection, the end and the beginning, mortality and eternity resonated with exceptional power this Easter-tide, especially as war continues in the holy land.  Sadly, the death of Pope Francis on this Easter Monday seems right for the times. It is hard to overstate [...]

  In the midst of this crazy month, there’s a magical week (well a little longer in fact) when a beautiful cosmic pattern forms in the sky, as Venus, now the Morning Star, turns direct on 13 April, and Mercury turns direct on 7 April. This pattern, an isosceles triangle connecting [...]

It was just that, until quite recently, for a few brief decades, in some parts of the world, we were able to carry on our little lives, listening to Daft Punk, making babies, sipping tea, scrolling through videos of foxes and grannies, planting carrots, dreaming, creating and generally trying [...]

You can feel the change in the northern hemisphere at this turn in the year — St Brigid’s Day, Candlemas, the Feast of the Purification of the Virgin. From the Philippines to Poland, 1-2 February are celebrated with candlelight. It is Imbolc, one of the four corners of the year on [...]

  Welcome to the Year of the Snake on this Aquarius New Moon (29 January). Blessed New Year to all! This picture by Gustav Klimt shows the goddess of good health, Hygiea with her pet snake. In both Chinese culture and here in the West, snakes are associated with wisdom and cunning, which [...]
